The battle for the heart and minds of Hezbollah’s
constituency requires halting all Hezbollah’s illegal dealings with the popular
base. The system of dependency and handouts that Hezbollah used to gain ground
among the Shiite masses must be replaced with non-political humanitarian
organizations that conduct the social work without political benefits. Allowing
Hezbollah to directly continue its social works is tantamount to vote buying
among the Shiite poor.

In addition to dismantling Hezbollah’s military structure
and the surrender of all its arms, we also need to cut the umbilical cords that
feed the beast, they include:

An arms embargo

The closure and guarding of our border with Syria, and
the refusal to establish diplomatic relations and exchange until a Syrian
regime change.

A complete international freeze and ban of all
Hezbollah’s financial instruments and transactions.

The disconnection of Hezbollah’s social works links
from the political party. These hand outs are best run by non-profit,
non-political and only humanitarian organizations.

The rewriting of Hezbollah’s charter to exclude all
religious references. The Lebanese laws need to be upgraded to ban religious
parties, and allow only secular ones. Hezbollah’s name could benefit from a
change into a non-religious term.

All incitement to violent ideologies and actions must
cease immediately. The language of tolerance, coexistence, and peace with
Israel and all nations should be preached.

A new Shiite moderate generation must be allowed to
rise by breaking the lock Hezbollah and Amal placed on the Shiite
electorate.

Nasrallah and the Hezbollah leadership must be held
accountable under Lebanese laws for their murderous acts against Lebanon.

Enough slavery to the Ideologies of Hate which retarded our
societies and inflicted great pain on all the region’s citizens. The Lebanese
deserve to free themselves from the yoke of ignorance. We cannot simply wait for
Israel and the World to solve our problems, we need to at least want to be
saved, and express it clearly. It is time to shed away the language of diplomacy
with the murderous thugs of Hezbollah and deal with them with a language they
understand and preach.
